Hello, everyone, and welcome back to my channel, Sparkle
English, where I teach you how to improve your level of
English. In my last lesson, we learned all about the seven
coordinating conjunctions or fanboys. In today's video, we
will have a 20 question quiz on the FANBOYS. So, what are
the seven coordinating conjunctions? For, and, nor,
but, or, yet, so. For means since or because. And means in
addition to. Nor means and not or also not. But means
however. Or means either. It presents an option. Yet is
very similar to but; it shows contrast. So means therefore.
If you want a full lesson on these conjunctions, click on
the link in the description below this video to watch my
full lesson. So let's get started. For each question,
you have to choose between A, B, C or D. You will have five
seconds to answer each question. Number one, I love
drinking coffee ___ tea. And, but, nor, or, yet. The correct
answer is A: and. I love drinking coffee and tea.
Number two, Dave isn't coming to the restaurant tonight ___
he isn't feeling well. Or, for, nor, or so.
The correct answer is B: for. Dave isn't coming to the
restaurant tonight, for he isn't feeling well. We use for
as a replacement for because. He isn't coming to the
restaurant because he isn't feeling well. Number three,
should we order pizza ___ sushi for dinner tonight? But,
or, nor, So.
The correct answer is B: or. Should we order pizza or sushi
for dinner tonight? We are presenting an option of either
pizza or sushi. Number four, it's raining ___ let's go to
the beach tomorrow instead. A and B for C nor D so.
The correct answer is D: so. It's raining, so let's go to
the beach tomorrow instead. So is another way of saying
therefore. Five. I broke up with Sam. I love him, ___ we
aren't compatible.
The correct answer is B: but. I love him, but we aren't
compatible. But means the same as however. We are showing a
contrast. I love him however, we are not compatible. Even
though I love him, we are not compatible. Six. She is an
introvert, ___ she has many friends.
The correct answer is A: yet. She is an introvert, yet she
has many friends. Yet also shows a contrast. It is the
same as saying but. Even though she is an introvert,
she has many friends. Number seven. Chris doesn't like
fruit ___ does he like vegetables. A yet, b nor, C
and, D so.
The correct answer is B: nor. Chris doesn't like fruit, nor
does he like vegetables. Nor means also not or and not.
Number eight, I can ski ___ I can't snowboard. A and, B nor,
C but, or D for.
The correct answer is C: but. I can ski, but I can't
snowboard. Again, we use but to show contrast. I can ski.
However, I can't snowboard. Number 9. I want to travel to
New Zealand ___ Australia this year. A but, B or, C and, or
D, so.
The correct answer is either B or C. I want to travel to New
Zealand or Australia this year. I want to travel to New
Zealand and Australia this year. If we say or, it means
we're only going to one place, either New Zealand or
Australia. However, if we use and, it means we want to
travel to both of these places. Number 10. Mary
doesn't have any money, ___ she can't afford a new car. A
for, B or, C yet, or D so.
The correct answer is D. Mary doesn't have any money, so she
can't afford a new car. So means therefore. Mary doesn't
have any money. And because of this, as a result, she can't
afford a new car. For the next 10 questions, you have to use
the best conjunction from any of the seven coordinating
conjunctions. They have lived in Germany, Spain, ___ France.
In all three countries. The correct answer is and. They
have lived in Germany, Spain and France. Number 12. Ben
won't eat broccoli ___ will he eat spinach.
The correct answer is nor. Ben won't eat broccoli, nor will
he eat spinach. Nor means also not or and not. And after nor,
you can see we switch will and he. Number 13. He is a
vegetarian, ___ he doesn't eat meat.
The correct answer is so. He is a vegetarian, so he doesn't
eat meat. Because he is a vegetarian, he doesn't eat
meat. We would not use the conjunction for here. Unless
you switched these two independent clauses. He
doesn't eat meat, for he is a vegetarian. Number 14. Mr.
Jones is a great teacher, ___ he is very patient.
The correct answer is for. Mr. Jones is a great teacher, for
he is very patient. For is another way of saying because
or since. Mr. Jones is a great teacher because he is patient.
Number 15. Should we go swimming at the beach ___ the
pool?
The correct answer is or. Should we go swimming at the
beach or the pool? This is because we want to show an
option of either the beach or the pool. Number 16. Her
wedding dress was cheap ___ elegant. The correct answer is
yet. Her wedding dress was cheap yet elegant. So even
though the dress was cheap and affordable, it was still
elegant. You could also use but here. Number 17. Serena
wanted to go camping, ___ her parents wouldn't let her.
The correct answer is but. Serena wanted to go camping,
but her parents wouldn't let her. Number 18. Her two
favorite sports are soccer ___ tennis. The correct answer is

The correct answer is so. Dad was tired, so he went to bed
early. Dad was tired and as a result, the effect of that,
was that he went to bed early. Okay, so let me know in the
